My OS: Windows 10

Problem: some weird things are happening, File icons disappeared for example.

Anyway to completely uninstall so I can reinstall from scratch.

I tried just uninstalling, upon reinstalling every setting was there: files, settings, extensions....

Attention: this will remove your program settings, installed extensions and workspace settings!!!

Better make backup first.

You can try to delete these folders after uninstalling program:

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code (program folder for user installation)

or

C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code (program folder for 64-Bit-Windows)

or

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft VS Code (program folder for 32-Bit-Windows)

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\.vscode (installed extensions)

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Code (program settings, workspace settings)

And then reinstall.
